Answer 2

Try the betty crocker website and the jello website.
They have awesome (quick) recipes that you can prepare the night before.
In my experience, I've learned that chex mix is a pain the butt because too many kids are allergic to nuts and other things.
A favorite in my family is getting the mini chocolate chip cookies and making ice cream sandwiches with different flavor ice creams..we don't have to buy the huge gallons...we buy the smaller pints and can test with more flavors.
Actually, this is a favorite with the adults too. I had them at my wedding and everyone was pleased.

Answer 3

Here are a few easy ones.

Waffle Grilled Cheese:

Butter sliced bread on one side. Put cheese in the middle....butter side out (i.e., not facing th cheese.) Then grill in waffle iron. When done, cut into 4 pieces. You can make several sandwiches at a time in the waffle iron.

English Muffin Pizza

Toast english muffins slightly...in the broiler of your oven. Then top with jarred tomato sauce and grated mozzarella cheese. Run under a broiler until cheese is bubbling.

Pigs in Blankets.

Answer 5

how about ants on a log? Really simple to make. Spread peanut butter on celery and add raisins. Voila!

Of course it may be best to find out if any kids are allergic to peanuts before making this. If they are, you can substitute cream cheese for the peanut butter.

Answer 6

1. pigs in a blanket
2. sausage balls
3. chicken nuggets
4. minature peanut butter sandwiches alternated with minature peanut butter and jelly sandwiches
5. baby pizza snacks-pepperoni and/or cheese

Answer 8

Cherry Tomato and Cucumber Bites
1 8-oz. package softened cream cheese
1/4 cup finely chopped basil leaves
1 garlic clove, crushed
1 tbsp. grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
Cucumbers and cherry tomatoes
Fresh dill (optional)
In a small mixing bowl, stir the cream cheese until smooth. Add the chopped basil, garlic, and Parmesan, if desired, and stir until thoroughly combined. Set aside.
Score the sides of a cucumber, if desired, with a zester, potato peeler, or sharp knife. Next, cut the cucumber into 1-inch-thick rounds and delicately scoop out the seeds with a melon baller. Slice off the tops of the cherry tomatoes with a serrated knife and scoop out the insides with the baller.
Fill a pastry bag, fitted with a star tip, with the cream cheese. If you don't have a pastry bag, fill a resealable freezer bag with cream cheese and snip off a small hole in the corner. Squirt the cream cheese through the bag into the hollowed-out cucumbers and tomatoes. Garnish with sprigs of fresh dill, if desired, and serve immediately.
Makes 1 cup of cream cheese, enough to fill 30 vegetables.

Cheese Straws
1/4 cup plus 1 tbsp. Romano cheese, finely grated
1 tbsp. imported paprika
1/2 tsp. freshly ground black pepper, or to taste
1/4 lb. prepared puff pastry dough, defrosted according to package directions
All-purpose flour, for dusting
1 egg white lightly beaten with 2 tsp. of water
1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Line two large baking sheets with parchment or waxed paper, cut so that 1 inch of metal is exposed at each end of the pan. In a bowl, combine cheese, paprika, and pepper, and set aside.
Place the puff pastry on a lightly floured work surface and dust. Roll the dough into a 12- by 10-inch rectangle, about 1/16 of an inch thick. Brush the dough with a little bit of egg wash. Sprinkle half of the cheese mixture evenly over the surface, spreading it with your fingers. Lightly flatten the dough with a floured rolling pin. Fold the rectangle in half crosswise to enclose the cheese, forming a 7 1/2- by 10-inch rectangle. Brush the top with more egg wash; sprinkle half of the remaining cheese mixture over the surface, spreading evenly; roll lightly again. Turn the dough over and repeat the procedure on the other side.
With a long sharp knife, slice the folded dough crosswise into 20 1/2-inch-wide strips. Picking up one folded strip at a time, unfold it and place it across the prepared baking sheet, stretching gently so that the ends of the strip reach the exposed metal edges of the baking sheet. (Gently twisting the dough gives a rope effect.) To prevent the straw from curling while baking, press the ends firmly onto the baking sheet so that the dough sticks. Repeat with the remaining strips, spacing them 1/2 inch apart on each pan. (Unbaked strips can be left on their baking sheets, covered securely with plastic wrap, and frozen for up to two weeks.) Bake ten minutes or until golden brown. Makes 20.

Chicken Fingers on a Stick
4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves, pounded 1/2 to 3/4 inch thick
Salt and pepper
24 (10-inch) bamboo skewers, soaked in water for 30 minutes
3 tablespoons peanut or vegetable oil
2 tablespoons barbecue sauce
1 1/4 cups plain dried bread crumbs
1. Cut each chicken breast lengthwise into
1/2-inch-wide strips and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Fold the chicken strips slightly and weave them onto the skewers.

In a small bowl, stir together the oil and the barbecue sauce. Spread the bread crumbs on a sheet of waxed paper. Lightly brush the sauce mixture over the chicken strips and then roll them in the bread crumbs.

Serve with the dipping sauce of your choice. Serves 6 to 8.
